Natural Language Processing and Expert System Techniques for Equity Derivatives Trading: The IE-Expert System

Marco Costantino

International Conference on Information Technology Interfaces (ITI’99), June 15–18 1999, Pula.

Abstract

Quantitative data are today largely analyzed by automatic computer programs based on traditional or artificial intelligent techniques, which provide traders with quantitative information that helps them hedge their risks. Qualitative data and, in particular, articles from on-line news agencies are instead not yet successfully processed. As a result, financial operators, notably traders, suffer from qualitative data-overload. This paper describes how Natural Language Processing, Information Extraction and Expert Systems can be used for reducing the traders’ qualitative information overload. In particular, the paper describes IE-Expert, an artificial intelligence system which is able to suggest investment decisions from qualitative information and to link this information to existing quantitative analysis.
